        Trump isn't going to run, he heard the same thing Palin heard from Gingrich; you make more money by pretending to run.

        It is revealing why Trump keep bringing up the Birther nonsense. By his own admission Trump says "it is a popular issue with Republicans". Of Course it is a popular issue with Republicans, but that doesn't mean it's true or sensible, and why wouldn't it be popular with a group of hate-mongers who can't accept the legitimacy of a black President.
        These people who admire Trump don't really give a damn what Trump says out-side of the Birther issue, unless he's attacking the President.
        What does it say about these people and what does it say about a man who will say anything just because it is popular. The hell with whether it makes sense or not. What is important is that it is "popular".
        Has it ever occured to Trump that these people are mentally-challenged and dangerous, I do.
        Trump is nothing but a foolish loudmouth opportunist, who will someday have to reflect on how stupid he looked while contemplating a run for President.
        Only a fool would take the low-road as a stepping stone to the hightest office in the land.
        The people who look up to Trump as a serious contender for President need their heads examined.

        All Trump did was used the media to help make himself look like a complete idiot.

      Hey Fox.
      Just because Trump is saying "the stuff people want to hear" doesn't mean it's true.
      Trump knows that Obama is a natural born US Citizen.
      He's just wants the attention.

      . . .we know they do not "want to hear" about Wall Street oil speculation, the debt limit vote, the potential collapse of our world credit standing, the fact that the Japanese nuclear crisis has now reached Chernobyl level.


      All of this will go away once it is revealed that Obama was born in Kenya and therefore is a Moslem

      Why is that f***ing degenerate, Roger Stone, still around...?

      Oh, FOX, right...sorry.

      BTW, didn't FOX%Friends get the memo about Shep Smith's FOX declaration that Obama's citizenship has been settled?

      Hey, Dooky, the town gossip says things that people want to hear about the town tramp, too. But it doesn't make it true, and it doesn't mean that you like or respect either party.

      I don't disagree with that. Of course, there are also people who love race-based attacks on Obama and anti-Hispanic rhetoric about immigrants but not the corporations that hire them. Telling people what they want to hear -- as opposed to facts -- has been the Republican platform since Reagan took office.

      So...

      I take it FOX would have defended Mr. Hitler as, well, since Mr. Hitler said "stuff people wanted to hear"?

      That's a defense? Would you really want someone running the country who just told you what you wanted to hear even if it was demonstrably false? Isn't that what Hitler did? ;)

      Hitler was saying things people wanted to hear. Jim Jones was saying things people wanted to hear. I am sure Howard Stern is saying things people wanted to hear. Paul Ryan and his band of merry men are finding out they must listen better to hear what people are saying. This business of telling people falsehoods over and over again and when they repeate it, it becomes " our constituents are telling us ' is bogus.

      "He's Saying The Stuff That People Want To Hear"


      If MIke Judge makes a sequel to Idiocracy, he may have to give some writing credit to Doocey, or at least be careful not to plagiarize things that he's said.

      I actually read the quote in the headline as spoken by one of the mouth=breathers in that film, in the same insistent tone as "Brawndo has electrolytes!"
